Why Do Game Developers Suck So Much?
Another week, another list of publishers and developers that have been accused of treating their staff abysmally. Add in Sony and Activision – and no doubt countless others – and it feels like the industry is just awful. Sexism, racism, abuse.

Equal opportunities abuse – finally we’ve made it. This week there have been stories…
Read MoreThe Old Man’s Guide to VTubers
At the grizzled old age of 32 sometimes I need help understanding the basics of the modern world. What is a dab? Why is TikTok a thing when it’s so obviously not a thing? And today, what the hell are vtubers? For a while now, there’s been a lot on the internet that I haven’t understood. Frankly, it’s only been getting worse. As someone who grew up in 90s chatrooms, I used to get the wild west nature of the…
Read MoreDawn of Ragnarok Review
The final DLC has landed for Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and it's a big one. Dawn of Ragnarok is available now, and thanks to Ubisoft Canada, I had an early go at the entire experience.

Read MoreSocial Media (in general) as a 2022 Influencer
Influencers are great - in fact, I've worked to build a brand outside of GamesReviews.com to attempt and achieve that to some extent. But I'm finding more and more that one single person isn't generally convincing me of making a purchase. Instead, I'm finding the growing communities on Twitter - as toxic as it can be - as a driving force behind whether or not I play games. And Elden Ring is a great example of this.

As one of the better clubs in the world, it was fun to not only cheer for them in real life, but to play with them as well in FIFA. On the men's side...it's never been that way. I've always cheered for the Netherlands when the EURO Cup or World Cup come around, and always played as the Netherlands in FIFA. When FIFA 23 launches this fall with a FIFA World Cup mode, I can finally play as....Canada?
